Default Template

I have created a default template for a non-logged in user ok, copied the
required default.psml file to the anon user.

I also want a template for a new logged in user who belongs to a specific
group.

I created a new user and setup the portlets they would see, no problem,
copied the psml file from that user into the html directory for that group.
Whenever I create a new user I deselect them from the default Jetspeed group
and add them to the CedAr group, but when I log them in the portlets defined
for the Jetspeed group appear.

How do I get new users to use my portlets by default.

Cheers

Jon

Dear Oliver,
you are right, but I was speaking of a "one minute setup"!

1. no portal context -> isolated context (e .g user information have to be
submitted through url...not beautiful)
Usually, my webapps starts with a jsp retrieving user info from the portal
with proper tags.

2. no layout scheme from the portal
Correct, you have to adopt a compliant layout. It depends on webapp
complexity.

3. possibly a scrollbar hierarchy
It depends on webapp structure. Jsps + servlets work quite well since you
can define the IFramePortlet size and then
navigate inside.

Anyway, everybody got his way, and that's mine only! :-)

Cheers
Stefano

Hi,

I am working on this problems, too. But when you use an iframe you have
significant disadvantages:

1. no portal context -> isolated context (e .g user information have to be
submitted through url...not beautiful)
2. no layout scheme from the portal
3. possibly a scrollbar hierarchy

the minimal effort speaks for an usage of an iframe. but if you use
javascript or target="_top" you possibly loose the context of the iframe and
your application is showed in a own browser window. Also newer browser
versions are required, too.

Greetings
O. Pfau

Dear Karthik,
my personal experience for a quick setup:

use an IFramePortlet to host an external webapp inside Jetspeed

Everything "seems" integrated but you keep modules separated.
All my portal is setup this way.

Hope it helps somehow
Cheers,
Stefano

Hi All,



I have just started to work on portal implementation of our Web Application
using Jetspeed-1.5.



My present scenario is:



 1. I have a working web application.

 2. I have to implement the portal concept into my web application.

 3. I have downloaded the Jetspeed1.5 war file and deployed into my
Application server (I'm using Jboss).



My doubts are:



 4. Now, how should I convert the existing application into individual
portlets and where should I deploy these portlets.

 5. Will my portlet application work independently or will I be required to
deploy my portlet application inside the      JetSpeed.



 Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in Advance.



Best regards,

Karthik.G
